Well, a movie finally broke us. Horror and mortal terror have a face. In the absolutely dreadful “family film” Tooth Fairy (2010)—quite possibly the worst movie our podcast has ever covered—Dwayne Johnson plays Derek Thompson, a hockey player who specializes in knocking out opponents' teeth. He has a lot on his plate: He's dating Ashley Judd, who has two kids: An adorable little girl who loves him and a punk teenage boy who thinks he's full of crap (Because he is.). At the same time, Derek has some hotshot new competition in the form of Mick “The Stick” Donnelly, a hot-shot new prospect who is described in the span of 25 seconds by the team's coach as both “the future face of this (minor league) franchise” and “only here for a cup of coffee before he makes the NHL.” Then he becomes the Tooth Fairy. Hilarity ensues. Next week: We're off! We return on July 11 for an episode about Fast Five (2011). The Summer of Rock is our summer 2025 miniseries covering the movie career of Dwayne Johnson through nine movies, presented in chronological order. Starting with his attempt at crossing over from the world of wrestling, The Rock's career got off to a bumpy start before finally taking off in the 2010s. But it wasn't long before the bumps returned, and we'll be telling the story for you all summer long!

Today’s episode of The Jubal Show is packed with drama, secrets, wild surveys, and hilarious headlines you don’t want to miss. Here’s everything we covered on the show: Toilet Paper Truth Bomb:Science has spoken, and the great debate is over—under is officially the more hygienic way to hang your toilet paper. The team breaks down the shocking results, including pros, cons, cat sabotage, and the controversial role of decorative folds. You vs Victoria - Rachel Takes the Crown:Rachel steps up to challenge Victoria Ramirez in a pop culture-fueled round of trivia. Can she beat the reigning champ and win Lil Wayne tickets? It’s a nail-biter featuring Zelda confusion, space race knowledge, and the eternal hockey vs lacrosse debate. Nina’s What’s Trending - Tankinis, Toxic Trends & Pickles:We explore the tankini revival and the internet’s modesty propaganda accusations. Then things take a dark turn with the rise of “dusting”—a dangerous viral trend involving inhaling aerosol chemicals. Nina wraps it up with a gut-healthy mood booster: pickles for breakfast. First Date Follow Up - Evan & Claire:Evan had what he thought was a perfect first date with Claire—axe throwing, street food, and a kiss. But when Claire ghosted him for a month, he came to us for help. Turns out, screaming out the names of everyone you’ve ever hated while throwing axes isn’t as charming as Evan thought. Claire says it felt more like a therapy session… with weapons. Jubal Phone Prank - Daniel’s Antibiotic Nightmare:Daniel just picked up a prescription—so why is his pharmacist asking if he feels tingling, heavier arms, and slurred speech? Turns out, it’s Jubal with a prank call from the “floral department,” and Daniel is not amused. Hilarity (and almost a 911 call) ensues. Dirty Little Secret - Delivery Guy Hookup:Today’s secret is straight out of a steamy drama. While her husband is away for work, a woman admits she started hooking up with the hot delivery guy—after flashing him on a dare from her friend. It started as a joke… but now it’s full-blown takeout with benefits. What the World Thinks Americans Do Best:From red Solo cups and cheese-on-everything to gender reveals that start wildfires, we run through a new survey of what other countries think Americans excel at. The top answer? Fast food domination. Plus, the crew pitches a million-dollar idea: the refrigerated beer pong table. To Catch a Cheater - Kayla & Dylan:Kayla’s gut tells her Dylan is cheating. Between Snapchat selfies, unexplained receipts, and too many "guys nights" in dry-cleaned outfits, she calls us for help. When Dylan sends flowers to Elise—his “podcast partner”—Kayla shockingly defends him. Is she right to trust him, or is Elise more than just a co-host? From hilarious to heartbreaking and everything in between, today’s Jubal Show episode delivers it all. Your all-access pass to the most hilarious, outrageous, and unpredictable moments from The Jubal Show! Catch up anytime with all your favorite segments, including:

When two low-level office workers, Larry and Richard, discover a financial discrepancy at their company, they bring it to the attention of their boss, Bernie Lomax. Unbeknownst to them, Bernie is behind the fraud—and plans to have them silenced. But before he can act, Bernie is murdered by a mob hitman. Instead of calling the authorities, Larry and Richard pretend Bernie is still alive to avoid suspicion—and keep the party going at his lavish beach house. Hilarity ensues as the duo desperately tries to maintain the illusion that Bernie is alive, leading to one of the most bizarre and iconic dark comedies of the 1980s.If you are new to the podcast then please consider following us on the platform that you love, we can be found most anywhere that you listen to your favorite podcasts.
